We have no respect for the draft process

Unless we can unload Schulz to Port this will be the third year in a row we've been unable to swap a player for picks, yet we willingly swap our own picks for others' discards. Perhaps it reveals a lack of faith in our ability to develop our own kids.
 
Morton for 35 I can handle, but McMuppet for 19 is just further validation that we have immense problems with Miller and Wallace.
 
Doesn't Francis Jackson have a say in all of this? Maybe the draft this year is very thin and Miller & Wallace have told Francis to take some time off because he won't be required.

Our club recently underwent a massive cleanout of players and renovations, I think during these works the RFC's blueprint for Youth Policy was thrown out.
 
I feel sick in the guts this morning to read such things like trading 19 for Mc Mahon. And for 1 Million over 3 years!

No way he is worth that contract let alone pick 19!!!

I am so embarrassed.

Words cannot describe the pain, anger and shock i'm feeling right now. MILLER & WALLACE ARE BOTH DISGRACEFUL if it is true we gave both 18 & 19 for McMahon, Morton and pick 30. I'm praying somehow this isn't true.

There are far more serious things happening in the world. Poverty, homelessness, death, starvation, drought, floods, loneliness, depression, disease the list goes on. If praying works there are probably things more worthy of a request from above. We must have charmed lives if a couple of trades are causing such anger and pain.

Freaking disaster. We may still trade Schulz for a pick but boy oh boy this draft must be the worst of all time or we have just fallen straight back into old habits. No freaking idea really Tiges do we. ::) ::) ::)

Like you have any idea.
